Although I heard a lot of hate surrounding this movie, I thoroughly enjoyed it. The Joker usually compliments Batman as the crazed villain with a lacking backstory. This movie highlighted how someone could become the Joker and addresses the issue of mental illness at the same time. Just like Deadpool change the mold for raunchy superhero movies, I hope The Joker did too with this suspenseful thriller, as opposed to all action and catch phrases. He’s no Heath Ledger, but Joaquin Phoenix knocked it out of the park and the new joker is definitely “Relatable”.
